Subject: Director's Minor Modification DIR-2005-04 to reface an existing canopYt
replace signs and allow a trellis seating area at the existing 1f76" gasoline
station located at 21855 Homestead Road, adjacent to Highway 85.
Chapter 19.132 of the Cupertino Municipal Code allows for administrative
approval of minor changes in a project. The Director reports his decision
to the City Council and Planning Commission in time to allow an appeal
of the decision within fourteen calendar days.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant proposes to: 1) reface an existing canopy and add a canopy logo signt 2)
replace signst and 3) allow an existing trellis seating area for employees and customers.
The changes are part of a new corporate image. The canopy refacing and sign
replacement will not significantly change the overall appearance of the facility. There
will be one new logo sign on the canopy that is considered by the sign ordinance to be
exempt because of its small size and lack of illumination.
The trellis seating area was installed without City approval and the applicant is seeking
to legitimize the structure and seating area that is used by employees. The outdoor area
was installed for the employees because the building and retail kiosk had poor
ventilation and no air conditioning.
ACTION:
The Director of Community Development deems the modification minor and approves
the canopy refacing, sign changes and trellis area with the following conditions:
1. The approval is based on the attached plan set titled: IfConocoPhillipst Profit

consisting of 4 sheets dated 8/16/04 and 6/2/04t and labeled CSt Al through A3t
